Pov Orsel:
During this whole Meeting, I asked myself why Elizabeth was acting this way, this was the first opportunity where I could meet her, but there are many reports of her in our archives and, like the other founders of the Border City, I studied everything about her in depth.
That's why I let her lead the negotiations when I saw her interest in delaying the end when it was already clear that the Alliance could not be realized.
As a Demigoddess, I thought she knew a way to fulfill the main point of the agreement for Lady Astrid, which would be a way to save her people, which proved to be correct.
I look at the creatures in the sky that started to move towards the Wave of Monsters, each of them is emitting a much stronger level of power than expected, but this type of technique is usually not efficient consuming large amounts of energy to be maintained.
Pursuing a brutal start to battle over a more consistent, long-lasting approach feels wrong to me because of the unnecessary level of risk when that energy is running out and there are still enemies left.
No matter how eye-catching it is to see Zenos and the creatures that appear to be his Familiars, a single-use ability should be employed wisely rather than on impulse.
"(Zadiris, do you confirm the things Lady Elizabeth claims about her brother?)" (I)
"(Yes, during the time I was away I met someone who had their race changed, their body completely transformed, and even their Soul transformed, the changes were so great that even their Aura was unrecognizable to that of the past.)" (Zadiris)
"(Who is this person?)" (Navar)
"(I'm also curious, could it be someone I know?)" (I)
"(Who he was in the past doesn't matter, but now he's one of the sons of Zenos, his name is Magnus.)" (Zadiris)
As we have been doing throughout the entire meeting, we were maintaining a mental connection with the use of some magic, we did it to talk without showing what we thought to this suspicious group.
From what the Blood Saint spoke Zenos' power to take the Ceremony of Awakening further than normal must be a result of being a Primordial Dragon, perhaps the addition of also being a Demigod had something to do with it, as was to be expected of a child of the Goddess Selene, it shouldn't be long before he joins his sisters as a living Calamity.
Knowing now what Elizabeth wants my interest in this meeting is close to zero as Elizabeth seems to want to take Astrid and her people as allies to her brother rather than Border Town.
Losing much of my interest in the matter I turned my eyes good to one of Zenos's daughters, the one called Nicole, since her father left I noticed her focus changed, I can feel the power of Aura and Authority stirring within her, I also noticed the curse she used on my Golems, I just don't know how she found them in her Illusory camouflage.
She took possession of 8 of my 30 Golems, the 8 she took were exactly those focused on information gathering and exploration.
I can still destroy these Golems with a thought, but I'm curious what she wants to do with them.
--------------
Pov Nicole:
It seems my theory was correct, using my Aura as a means to use the Authority I inherited from my Father, I can use a binding curse to take control of a Golem not affiliated with me.
Maybe it's an intrinsic characteristic of the Authority in gaining control or the fact that it's a kind of higher power that the opposing side can't utilize, I need more field tests before I can analyze the repeating patterns between each one, just so I can get to to a truly acceptable answer.
Finding the Golems was, my father can see through the Illusions, it seems he can't teach me how to do it exactly being a characteristic belonging to him, but just by studying him I was able to develop a magic that I applied to the magic crystals that I use as a eyes, this together with the concentration of Aura was enough to see through the Illusion, it seems to be far from what my Father and Nix can do but it serves my purposes.
The cubic shape of the Golems from that call of Orsel are practical and functional, which should be your focus as a magic engineer, thanks to that I was able to see through the functionality of each Golem, I took only the investigation-oriented ones, their interesting internal structures o enough to want to steal some later.
I made the Golems I managed to go in the direction of where my father and his Familiars were, it was just in time for me to capture the transformations of most of them in full.
"(The way their energies circulate is intriguing, but the change in their bodies is the real focus.)" (I) I think you should take a look at
My body doesn't seem geared towards battle since I thought a lot about aesthetics at the time I created it, but I realized that a transform ability can be useful to add hidden cards that I could use when needed.
I split my mind into 8, my body will be fine unattended, and Vanessa and Diana can take care of me while I focus on what matters.
My biggest problem is controlling these things at the same time, having to get used to the maneuver commands, with the spells focused on surveillance and still being careful not to destroy the Golems by getting too close to the battle.
It took exactly 41 seconds for me to resolve my inability to control these Golems well, after that resolved I was able to position them in order to see their transformations from various angles.
I was a little disappointed that Hinata and Orion's bodies were far from what I can use as a reference, Sakura wasn't very helpful either as her wooden body only grew as layers of magic and other energies took shape in her body, that's something which I cannot replicate exactly because it is a natural process.
Layla seems to have used an elemental fusion, but her body structure from Fairy acts different from mine in that regard, it doesn't work either.
Ragnar, Nix, and my father's bodies were the most useful, I could analyze the changes in their physical bodies and energy flows, and the way the master created his Armor was what made me open a new path, use the Aura to create something solid, I've seen this before, I don't know how I missed something so interesting, I must study the possibilities of it.
As he was keeping mental notes everyone started their attacks, my Father attacked not with the sword but with a breath attack using spatial energy and Poison, a green mist floating in front of him along with a mess of shattered bodies.
Layla seems to have done something similar, but instead of it being a breath attack, she caused a Tree to grow from each of her 4 hands directly into a circular hole in the space in front of her, while countless cocks of manner appeared in the midst of the monsters doing them in pieces.
Orion is being the most normal one, he is using his speed and flexibility to destroy the monsters with his teeth as well as his claws, running freely between them with his giant body.
Ragnar is slicing them to pieces with his Swords throwing blades of Aura in all directions.
Hinata I'm not even able to understand what she's doing, countless eyes open on the tentacles that form her hair, but they don't do anything apparently, but the monsters near her are frantic resorting even hurting themselves greatly.
Sakura on the other hand was making more direct attacks going at bigger monsters.
Nix as a Dragon was the center of widespread destruction as my Father was doing elsewhere.
After the first attack, my Father began an overwhelming attack against the monsters, wherever he went carnage was left behind.
I tried to analyze the monsters, they all looked different at first glance, but I soon managed to group them into dozens of different groups, I tried to catalog what I could learn from them a few side notes, their race being very similar to Goblins in the matter of having many variants in their evolutions, more specialist variants in certain aspects.
But while the Goblins were humanoid in shape, these creatures are shaped like large insects, one of which even looked like a cross between a monster fish and mosquito.
The structure of their bodies was interesting because it was so functional, but it only took a few minutes of battle for me to notice something, the others were changing their attack patterns, and they also didn't seem to fear for death as they didn't show anything in front of the large number of initial deaths.
They changed their tactics, but the way they did it was strange, everyone moved in perfect sync making those with stronger Auras go to face Ragnar and those with greater defenses to go after my Father.
Those who seemed to have the most magical affinities made formations that used their Auras' connections to form ritual magic circles to attack Hinata and Layla.
Those with fire powers went after Sakura while the faster ones went to restrain Orion.
They were all moving in perfect sync to the point of being unnatural, they didn't look like living creatures as they didn't seem to have individualism acting as if they were fragmented parts of the same entity.
That would be frightening if they had the power to go beyond what they are showing, their strategies only serving to delay rather than turn the tide of battle.
It was trying to find the cause of this change that I noticed some fry that weren't moving in sync with the others, which made it easy to find them.
"(I found them... so these are the queens...)" (I)
